Observe your beliefs by listening to your thoughts and words and trying to align the two.  Write down the ones that don’t serve you well.  Learn  other ways to change your thoughts or words to empower your beliefs. The truth is that if you believe you will have success and reach higher limits, you will. Remember, whatever you believe, is what is your truth. So why not believe in yourself and your ability to have all the success and happiness you deserve?

The theme of last weekend’s SOLD OUT Brand Authenticity workshop was “The more you show up, the more you make!”

Which meant of course, that I had to be a model for what I was talking about. It wasn’t hard but at moments, it did feel a bit risky.

Today is Tax Day in the U.S. so it’s appropriate that we talk about money!

Are you attracting all the money you desire? Or does it still seem like there is an invisible barrier blocking money from easily coming to you?

I often get clients asking me about my favorite tools for shifting those pesky (and often giant boulder-like) limiting beliefs. Often many of those limiting beliefs will have to do with money. I work with a variety of products and I like to share with you my favorites!

Have you ever seen “A Daily Show” by Jon Stewart on Comedy Central? As you might imagine (the fact that it’s on Comedy Central is probably a giveaway) it’s a political satire show.

Anyway, a few weeks ago, Jon had a couple of segments dissecting the media coverage surrounding our presidential election. Namely, showing how the media is blowing things out of proportion. For instance: about a half dozen journalists reported Republican candidate Mitt Romney to have “exploded” at a fellow journalist. Jon showed the “explosion,” and as far as I could tell, Mitt didn’t even raise his voice.

Because of answers I was receiving from clients recently I asked the question “How do you define yourself?” The answers led me to write about this really important question this week. I started asking people, mainly women, around me the same question.

It saddened me to hear some of the answers I received. One woman defined herself by her husband and children, another by her level of financial success, one by being the daughter of a well known personality and so forth. Only a few women defined themselves just by being who they are.

Have you ever noticed how hard it is to fill a bucket that is full of holes? Imagine for a moment how silly it would be to try and keep the bucket full of water when the water just keeps pouring out the bottom.

Well that is what most of us do when we try to leap forward in our growth with a diminished Power Factor.

Your Power Factor is a combination of your energy, your bandwidth and your support systems. As entrepreneur’s, our greatest asset is our creativity and ambition. But if our Power Factor is being compromised, then your bottom line can take the hit.

Are you like many entrepreneurs who are afraid to choose a niche for your offerings? I know there can be the fear that you’re limiting your business if you narrow your niche down too much, but that simply isn’t true. Believe me, it’s so much easier and profitable to market to a smaller portion of the market (just think how many people there are in the world!) than to try to be all things to all people. And you’ll be amazed to find out that you actually open yourself up to possibilities that would not have come up had your focus been all over the map.

That use to drive me crazy!

When I was a teenager I was painfully shy. I wasn’t very confident (although I did have this inner drive /obsession that I was going to become confident!). Since I was uncomfortable with myself I didn’t usually smile very often as that would be taking up space in the world. That would be claiming something for myself - I’m happy! I was always afraid that someone would crush my happiness. ( I didn’t know at the time that I was the one who was responsible for my happiness and no one could “take it away” ) So, I often had people who would pass by me and say “SMILE!” - rather forcefully, demanding that I brighten up and plaster a big grin on my face.
